Doubtless they are actua- ted by the best of motives in thus striving to gain 'recognition as belligerents for their countrymen from a Power which carries a certain amount of weight in Far Eastern affairs, but at the same time it must be re- membered that those who interfere without | invitation frequcy do more harm than good, and we fancy that they would have done better to have let matters alone until they had obtained the consent of AGUINALDO to conduct their mission.

Talking of missions were reminded that we are still without news of any proceedings on the part of the American Commission, which left here some time ago for Manila, with the intention of enquiring into the Philipino question. On their departure from [Hongkong we remarked that it was difficult to understand what good could be done by the Commission in the presentstate of affairs and that unless a cessation of hostilities could be arranged for while matters were discussed we could not see how a fair estimate of the Philipinos, and their fitness or otherwise for self government, could be arrived at. To this opinion we still adhere, for it goes without say ing that both sides of a question must be heard before an unbiassed opinion can be given on its merits. As matters now stand in the Philippines we do not see how the Commis sioners can possibly get at the Philipino side of the question. They can, it is true, see for themselves the state of affairs in the very circumscribed area hold around Manila by the American troops, but they certainly can hot form any opinion upon the whole of Luzon, or upon the whole of even one pro- vince, by so doing. One might just as well send a Commission to Tytam to enquire into the sanitary condition of Canton.

The Commission can certainly examine any Philipinos that they may happen to meet with in Manila, but from them they will only get a very one-sided view of the matter, which will naturally tend towards the American side of the question. But every day that the war against the Philipinos con- tinues the hope of a peaceable and amicable settlement of the questions at issue grows more and more slender.
